I'm not aware of this bug. I don't know of any critical bugs in SMC. There are exactly 22 known SMC *bugs*, which you can see listed here, all of which we plan to fix ASAP: https://github.com/sagemathinc/smc/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aissue%20is%3Aopen%20label%3AI-bug%20sort%3Acreated-asc%20-label%3Ablocked On can also use SMC via docker on Windows, Linux and OS X, as explained here: https://github.com/sagemathinc/smc/blob/master/src/dev/docker/README.md I wish I could recommend the official sagemath docker images, but it looks like they haven't been updated in 6 months to 1 year ago?
